Elevation Label not having option to show 1st Reference Level on Plan View

Nguyen Thai Tran — Wed, 11 Mar 2026 05:29:22 GMT

Hi,

On any plan view, Is there any way to show 1st Referencing Level with the Elevation Label? I'm trying to show the top level of the retaining wall with 1st referencing level but it does not have any function. All it has is the Current Story. See screenshot attached.

Am I missing something?

I'm using ArchiCAD 29 AUS.

Thanks all

Operating system used: Windows 13

No, it is a limitation of that label.

You could create your own with the autotext label.

Or there would be other 3rd party label objects out there that can do it.

Someone may have a recommendation for one.

Barry.
